How effective are these at keeping you awake at night? If you don't want to get tired/fall asleep?

I take these due to major deficiency of B12, and am not aware of it affecting sleep.

Yes, I have tried. DO NOT do this, they are not even noticable at night time. Very dangerous.

I personally haven't slept with them on my ears but I have laid on them while using them. There is some slight pressure and they will eventually start to hurt but that's just me. They're pretty light but they're also thin (but not thin to where they'll break and stuff) I wouldn't recommend sleeping with them on so you won't end up being choked by em or breaking them.

they work well, some time that me a little tired. I still use them when I need them.

If you were in bed resting with another person and had them fairly loud, they would be annoyed. They are not closed ear cup type. BUT at lower volumes, like maybe a talking book, they are discreet and unnoticeable. They are not really capable of VERY LOUD playing as they are battery powered. You will also be able to hear room noises while using them....doors, babies, dogs, etc which can be a good thing. They seem to be excellent for late night TV watching. We have noticed a slight delay in audio signal which can make a persons voice/ lips seem a bit out of sync. Quality is good. Durable, easy to use, not a loose or tight fit. IF you have pierced ears these are really a good ear fit, as in not pinching pressure points.

I surely wouldn't want to sleep with them on my head all night! As previously stated, they're rather bulky and would make sleeping difficult unless you're flat on your back or sitting in a chair! Also, they don't reduce noise levels enough to make a difference. Sleeping with a feather pillow over your ears would block out more noise!

I have actually used these for snoring-blocking when I was sharing a cabin a while back. It will block out light snoring but not heavy (you know, the surgery-required kind) but they definitely take the edge off! They also block out noisy neighbours, music playing nearby, etc.. Highly recommend them.

They aren't very comfortable for overnight sleeping I've tried. They are a tad too bulky. This is especially the case with "side sleepers" you would be better with 'Hearos ear plugs'

I would not want to wear them to bed, where you would expect snoring to occur. They are large and would be very awkward. As for their soundproofing qualities, however, they would significantly reduce the sound of the snorer, but they would also reduce any other sound you may want to hear.

Yes, these earplugs work without falling out and are very comfortable. Be sure to follow their recommended way to insert them in your ears and they will work great in any sleep position (or even walking around in a noisy mall)!

Yes...my wife snores pretty bad and this is exactly why I bought them. They work well. What I like most about them is that I can still hear the alarm clock or a smoke detector or even a loud voice and such but everything is muffled to the point that it is not disturbing.

I suppose it depends on what types of noise you are trying to not hear.. I wear them to bed and I don't hear anything but the audio book I am listening to.. I took them on my recent flight and I didn't hear the hum of the plane while in flight.. so I personally find they are pretty good at blocking out outside noises.. But I don't use them for any high end work or need to use them for any such, I am purely a casual user (over age 35), I don't have to turn the volume way up to reduce outside noise either. I hope this helped!

Yes I sleep with them and I have no problem hearing my alarm but I use a clock radio and the buzzing is fairly loud. Honestly the best thing I have ever purchased!

I used them overnight, but not two nights in a row. The results were noticeable right away.

No they won't cancel snoring. Not effective on speech, just on constant background noise.

yes, I would highly recomend them. You will be able to sleep on your side with them on. I use them only in the daytime around loud noise, it blocks out 75% of the volume.

I didn't try to sleep with them. This particular brand did not give me enough compression (I'm 145 lbs). But my 83 year old husband, who has skinny legs found the this brand tight enough to wear during the day that his legs didn't get as tired (he walks about an hour and a half). I prefer the compression socks with specific milliliter sizes, rather than those which are just small medium and large. I ecommended a different brand, responding to an Amazon question like yours and my answer was removed. Neither found the need to wear them at night.
